| Abstract |
Using a uniformly selected and highly spectroscopically complete sample
of Chandra X-ray sources, we show that one cannot use X-ray spectral
classifications and optical spectral classifications equivalently. Until
a better understanding is reached for how the X-ray and optical
classifications relate to the obscuration of the central engine, the use
of a mixed classification scheme can only complicate the interpretation
of X-ray AGN samples. |
